Review on Shimano BR CT91 Cantilever Brake Shoe by Andres Imaging

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect replacement for 20 year old pads.

As part of my constant drive for self improvement, I took my bike out of storage for the first time in 15 years. I made some basic adjustments, unhooked the sticky switches and rode it without really examining the brake pads and noticing that they were still in place. brakes. Well, at some point it did happen, but emergency stops were out of the question. I noticed that I was missing something very important and immediately ordered this replacement. When I removed the old pads they were so hard that they rattled on impact and literally melted where they were holding onto the rim. The new pads were an exact replacement, with good rubber, easy to install and once the melted remains of the old pads wore off they were quiet and had good stopping power. Don't be an idiot like me, BRAKES ARE VERY IMPORTANT! MAKE SURE YOURS ARE WORKING!
